> That dictatorship now has imprisoned close to 1 million people in Xinjiang.

Sources please? Xinjiang is not that big, they have 20mm people in total, 1mm will be fractional big enough to make the street appear more empty...

Ironically, the poster you are replying to may not have (legal) access to search engine that will return such results.

That article has about as much intellectual honesty as claiming that the US is imprisoning Native Americans and poisoning them with drugs and alcohol.

I don't think you understand what constitutes "evidence." A NY Times article that doesn't contain a single verifiable fact or even a first hand witness account is not evidence, by any actual reasonable basis, that a million people have been disappeared.

“The first thing you notice is the quiet. Then the white strips of paper stretched diagonally across the front doors of stores that look like they were vacated in a hurry. Once you get close enough, you can read the painted serial numbers on the house walls — WB-BUK 1 to 15 on one street — that tell you no one is coming back to these homes, and that many of those who lived there have been detained.

Welcome to Xinjiang in China’s north west.”

One of many such reports.

The infamous Xinjiang re-education camps for Muslims. Shawn Zheng has painfully curated this list, follow his twitter too. I think he is doing a great research work, more so because it puts him at a personal risk.
